Do trans people like to be noticed?
Do trans people like to be noticed? - Lemmy.World
I don’t know very many trans people in real life, but it’s something that I wonder about whenever having an interaction on a personal level. I don’t mean this to sound invasive or creepy. It’s an honest question from a person who simultaneously wants you to feel as free and welcome as I can help you to feel living on the same planet as me, while also having absolutely no paradigm for what it feels like to be a transsexual person. Do you tend to appreciate it when someone comments positively on your looks or clothes, either with or without reference to the fact that it’s sometimes somewhat apparent that a transition occurred at some point, or do you prefer that it goes mostly ignored like it does most of the time for cis people? Does it feel like a patronizing participation medal, or kinda validating? On one hand, I know that if I complete a project, it feels good if someone comments on it without me pointing it out, and asks questions about how I did it, and I’m likewise happy to acknowledge the amount of work and bravery that a trans person has put into themselves, but you also have other stuff going on in your life, and I don’t want to make it weird by making you feel like that’s the only part of you that anyone notices. For clarity: this is on the premise that it’s done with social awareness and tact. I don’t mean complimenting someone by saying “You really do look like a guy.” I’m more asking about something along the lines of “I like your dress. That’s awesome!” With the extra “that’s awesome.” part, being verbal shorthand for: it’s awesome that you’re being honest enough with yourself to wear it in public, and I respect it. Thoughts?
How did the Nazi salute originally become a thing?
How did the Nazi salute originally become a thing? - Lemmy.World
I started wondering about this for no particular reason I can think of. Who’s idea was it? Was it supposed to be symbolic of something? Did they just start passing out pamphlets at rallies titled: “Forget everything you THINK you know about public greetings!”?
Switch game recommendations
Switch game recommendations - Lemmy.World
Looking for game recommendations for my 4 year old who just got a Switch for Christmas. He’s having a good time with Donut County, and likes running around the town in Stardew Valley, but looking for something else. Doesn’t have to be super kids-y, but easy, chill, no lose condition or time limits. Thoughts?
Android security update messed up car
Android security update messed up car - Lemmy.World
This may be a bit hyper specific, but I have a 2021 Ford Mustang Mach E, which I got used a couple weeks ago. I use my Galaxy Fold 5 as the key via Bluetooth, and it worked fine until a few days ago when I installed the security update 20.0. it drove to work fine, I installed the update while at work, and then it did not work to get me home. I tried to reinitiate the key generation process in the app, but it claims it cannot connect to the car, when my wife’s iPhone still can. I was just curious if anyone has any thoughts on if the recent update deprecated a feature the app uses, or if they had had a similar experience. The update seem to be pushed by Samsung, and not from within Android, so I figured I would ask here first. Thanks.
what is the most "above your station" the thing you have ever experienced?
what is the most "above your station" thing you have ever experienced? - Lemmy.World
My wife and I make okay money in a middle class area, but, due to a combination of good luck, and contrived to circumstances, we recently got to watch a college football game in the stadium’s super executive corporate sponsor level suite. It was awesome. Open bar, amazing catered food, and people networking all around me who are clearly in the c-suite of their respective companies. I had a list of crazy things I was going to say if someone asked me what I did, but it never came up.
Do lesbians have a concept of Top and Bottom?
Do lesbians have a concept of Top and Bottom? - Lemmy.World
It’s been a long ol time since I’ve known any lesbians well enough to ask such things, but I followed my brain down a weird line of inquiry, and got to wondering about the current state of the art for the gay gals. I guess I had always assumed it was similar to the dynamics of a gay guy relationship, but then I realized that since men have both an input and an output, they can choose, but it’s mechanically a bit different for cis women. Is there any relationship between that, and the slightly more masculine versus feminine flavors? Asking for a friend, who is me. I want to know. Thanks.
virt-install vTPM issue
virt-install vTPM issue - Lemmy.World
Sorry to be a bother, but I’m hitting a wall here, and my google-fu is not strong enough apparently. I’m trying to reinstall a Home Assistant VM on my server, (It’s been a while, and I have no idea how I did it originally). Running: virt-install --name haos --description "Home Assistant OS" --os-variant=generic --ram=16384 --vcpus=4 --disk /home/chris/haos_ova-12.4.qcow2,bus=scsi --controller type=scsi,model=virtio-scsi --import --graphics none --boot uefi Returns: WARNING KVM acceleration not available, using 'qemu' WARNING Using --osinfo generic, VM performance may suffer.

Ending vTPM manufacturing @ Sun 21 Jul 2024 02:58:07 AM UTC I gather that it seems to be a issue with the vTPM, but I usually deal in containers, so this is all new on me. Thanks in advance.
